We all had so much fun at the Retreat. This was not your Grandma's knitting Retreat!
Knitting Sessions
Free From Knitting Session
The Retreat was filled with fun optional events and knitting sessions led by our very own Stockinettes. Doris led a fascinating session about Free From Knitting. Everyone loved it!

Miniature Knitting
Can you believed they were actually knitting with sewing needles?!
Knitting R & R
Nina & Beth...relaxing and taking advantage
of the beautiful fall weather!
What's a Retreat without a little R & R (rest & relaxation)? Many Stockinettes took advantage of the beautiful fall weather to knit and enjoy the great outdoors at the same time!
Bonnie & Paige
Close Knit Friends
The Retreat was a time for close knit friends to enjoy this special event together. It was also a great time for Stockinette members to get better acquainted with other members, too. Many new knitting friendships were made during the Retreat.
